Jim Parsons marries long-time partner Todd Spiewak

In November, the Hidden Figures star had gushed about Spiewak on Instagram for their 14th anniversary. “I met this guy (the one with the mic) 14 years ago today and it was the best thing that ever happened to me, no contest,” Parsons, 44, captioned a throwback selfie of him and Spiewak from a memorable karaoke session.

Adding, “One of his greatest gifts to me is that he no longer takes me to sing karaoke. Also, I believe this was a selfie with an actual camera, as our phones couldn’t do that back then hahaha! #todd #anniversary.”

In May 2012, Parsons had quietly come out after a profile in the New York Timesmatter-of-factly described him as “gay and in a 10-year relationship.”
